Bathroom Demolition Services in NYC

Bathroom Demolition Services in New York City

Bathroom renovations are among the most popular home improvement projects in New York City, and they all begin the same way: everything old has to come out. Removing a bathtub, tearing out floor-to-ceiling tile, pulling a vanity off the wall, and disconnecting plumbing fixtures requires a crew that knows how to work carefully in a small, plumbing-intensive space. BeeziBee Junk Removal provides professional bathroom demolition services across all five NYC boroughs. We handle the full gut, the debris hauling, and the disposal so your renovation starts clean.

What We Remove

Our bathroom demolition service covers every element typically found in a New York City bathroom. We remove bathtubs of all types including cast iron, fiberglass, and acrylic models. We tear out shower enclosures, glass shower doors, and shower pans. Vanities, vanity tops, toilets, bidets, medicine cabinets, and mirrors all come out. We strip wall tile and floor tile down to the studs and subfloor, including the thinset, adhesive, and cement board or backer board underneath.

Beyond the major fixtures, we also remove all the secondary elements: towel bars, shelving, soap dishes, exhaust fans, light fixtures, faucets, showerheads, and plumbing trim. When we are finished, your bathroom is a blank shell ready for new plumbing rough-in, waterproofing, and the build-out your contractor has planned.

The NYC Bathroom Demo Challenge

Bathrooms in New York City are notoriously small, often no more than 40 to 60 square feet. But compact does not mean simple. These rooms contain a dense concentration of heavy, fragile, and water-connected materials, all of which need to be removed without damaging the structural framing, supply lines, drain lines, and adjacent rooms.

Here is what makes NYC bathroom demo different from most other markets:

• Cast iron tubs in prewar buildings — These tubs were installed before the walls and doorways were finished, which means they physically cannot fit through the bathroom door in one piece. Our crew breaks them down on-site and removes the sections through narrow hallways and stairwells. In walk-up buildings, every piece is carried by hand.
• Floor-to-ceiling tile on cement board — Many NYC bathroom renovations from the 1990s and 2000s used cement backer board under the tile. Removing the tile alone is not enough because the substrate is usually too damaged to reuse. We tear both layers off the studs cleanly.
• Waterproofing considerations — We are careful around shower pan areas and tub surrounds where the existing waterproofing membrane meets the subfloor and wall framing. Preserving these junctions or removing them cleanly helps your contractor install a reliable new waterproofing system.
• Building coordination — In most NYC apartment buildings, bathroom demo generates heavy debris that must travel through common hallways and elevators. We protect every surface along the path and schedule debris removal around building rules and elevator availability.

Who We Work With

Homeowners planning a bathroom remodel are our most frequent clients. Hiring BeeziBee for the demo phase lets your general contractor or tile installer walk into a prepped space on day one instead of spending their first few days on teardown.

General contractors and plumbing firms hire us to handle the demo portion of bathroom renovation projects. This allows their skilled tradespeople to focus on the rebuild work they were hired to do rather than spending time swinging sledgehammers and hauling tile debris.

Property managers renovating tenant bathrooms between leases rely on our fast turnaround to keep vacancy periods short. Real estate investors and house flippers across the city use our services to maintain tight renovation schedules when every day of holding cost matters.

If your renovation includes the kitchen as well, our kitchen demolition service covers full kitchen gutting with the same level of care and debris hauling. For whole-apartment or multi-room renovations, our interior demolition service handles the complete scope. And if the demo generates large volumes of material that need ongoing removal during a longer build, our construction debris removal service provides scheduled pickups throughout the project.
